RECOVERY OF THE STOLEN CHILD. In 'mother part of our paper will be found the particulars of the abduction of the infant child of Mrs, Lommas ; and we haye now the gratification of stating that the child has been restored. The following are the particulars : The J)rPther of Mrs. Lommas, a tradesman, named Hickson, residing bt the FAgeware-road, being informed of the child's ab thicsion, applied to a constable named Gardner, end they pro eseded In the direction whiCh the chaise-cart WAS said to have taken, but traced it no further than Tyburn-gate. Mr. Hickson and friends were occupied the whole of Thursday in distributing hand-bills, and on the evening of that day, a letter was delivered at Mrs. Lornmas's, through the post, signed " lawny mous,",—Our correspondent has been favoured with a copy, it is as follows; 111a.wast,—Your 411 slilll be reslorel, uninjured, to ulgbi or in the morning. It is useless for you to trouble yourself aboui the parties who Parried the boy oft; because they will ever he um known to you." This letter had not the effect of quieting Mrs. Commas. About eight. o'clock last evening the child came home, and in manner as follows :—One of the Bayswater coaches drove up to the door, with the child sitting inside. The coachman stated that he re eeived charge of the child in Holborn, from a shabbily dressed man, of tail and meagre figure, who got upon the coach and rode as far as the Uxbridge-road, near Tyburn-gate, when he alighted, paid his fare and also that of the child, and desired hint (the driver) to take the child to its mother, who woula be waiting at Union-row. Scarcely had the fellow di%appeared, when the coachman related the charge imputed to him to a passenger, who immediately unravelled the mystery. The child seems-to have suffered much from excessive crying, awl in the short intervals of sleep which came about it during the night, started occasionally, as if dreaming of some very alarming object.—Nothing farther has yet transpired.

A Reieript, *addrisied to Duke Alexander of Wurtemburg, expresses his dissatisfaction with the mea sures which the Duke has adopted to improve the internal navigation of the Empire. A Rescript to Count Nessel rode is to the following effect : " The talents which distinguish you, and the manner in - which you employ them in the service of our country, had drawn on you the particular attention of the late Emperor Alexander our beloved brother. You have had the honour to execute his wise resolutions at the most glorious periods of his reign. You continue to justify his choice and his confidence, and have already given us proofs of your inviolable attachment to ourself. By this, and by your able management of the important department com mitted to your care, you have acquired a claim on our favour. To give you a proof of it we have chosen the day of our Coronation, and by an ukase to our Minister of Finance, dated this day (meaning that this example is not to be taken as a precedent), we have assigned a portion of land in the government of Tamboff, which unites peculia advantages, and which We give you in full property for ever. May this new recompense, descending from general' tion to generation, perpetuate among your descendants the honorable recollection of your services, recognised by one of the greatest Sovereigns, as well as of our esteem for you. We are, &e. NICIIOLAS.

The Journal contains the names of the persons con demned to bard labour, the duration of whose sentence has been shortened (as already stated in German and other Journals.) . It is added,—" After the expiration of the " term fixed in the present ukase, for the duration of the " time which the above mentioned individuals will have to " pass in hard labour, they shall all be banished to Siberia." Then follows the list of those, who, having been exiled to Siberia for an indefinite period, are to remain in banish ment only twenty years. Papers have i*en received from Port-au-Prince to the 30tb July, inclusive. They contain particulars of a law passed for esta blishing an Entrepot fur the receipt of the productions of foreign nations; that for this purpose warehouses will be built at Port-au- Prince, 'Aux Cayes, (' ape Haitian, St. Domingo, and Jacmel , under certain regulations to be observed by the Captain and Super cargoes, who will be obliged, on their arrival, to give full particu lars of his cargo, marks, numbers, &c., before he is allowed to break bulk, :which must be verified by them, and signed with their names, when permission will be given to unload, and an account taken by the Custom House, to see if it agrees with their declara tion, &c. A further law is also given in these papers, regulating the Notaries, and fixing the fees they are to receive for their services And attendance. We have frequently adverted to the great extent of the Trade in .Slaves carried on upon the Coast of Africa, under the sanction of the French Flag ; and we were lately inclined to question the sincerity of the intentions of the government of France, in the orders which-they, had issued on this subject, from the open and undisguised manner in which ships have been fitted out at Nantes and other ports, for the avowed purposes of this traffic. The Sierra Leone papers, received yesterday, contain further And ample evidenie of the unrestricted pro ceedings of the French ships engaged in Slave dealing on the Coast ; and of the horrors occasioned by it.— The Prench squadron, nominally employed for the pre vention of the trade, is entirely inadequate to that ob ject, and an unbounded licence to carry it on in cer. , likie latitudes seems to be enjoyed under the sanction Of the White Flag. The Portuguese and Spaniards, too, noixiith stand Mg they received our money as the price of theii;telin'quishing this inhuman traffic, still cling to and2Lrry it on in the most barefaced manner to the Southward of the Line, and even to the Northward of it, m far as the activity of our squadron does not pre iron it. We shall never believe that the French Government are sincere in their wish to suppress the trade alto gether, until they will sanction the seizure by us of every vessel, bearing the flag of France, engaged in this trade, when and wherever she may be met with. We give in another column some extracts from these papers, which go A long way in establishing the fact, that notwithstanding the expenditure of life and treasure which England has made to put a termination to the Slave Trade, it has in the aggregate increased in extent, and that it is carried on with more inhumanity and atrocity than at ally f (miner period. We shall give some extracts, when space will allow, from an able 41 1 (1 inter • estlng article on this subject) contained i n th e Number of the Quarte r ly Review just published. We mentioned in our Tap er of yesterday, that in consequence of the paragraph which appeared inthe Times relative to the circumstance of a lirolier having gone to the persoti who prints Wetenhall's Course of Exchange, and obtained the insertion of a fictitious price thc . frPfil I.etltes on Tuesday last, a Special Meet ing of the Committee of the Foreign Stock Exchange was to be held yesterday afternoon for the purpose of in. yestigating the matter. We understand that Mr. WaTtN t.'s Clerk being called in, and questioned AS to the circumstance, stated, that when he was at the printer's, Mr. J. H. ISRAEL came, an t i desired that the ll:tench !lento might be quoted 97. He (the tlerk; hesitated, as it was against his orders to utter any prices without the consent of Mr. WETENTriku.. , wir.ISRAEL replied, that he hall Mr. W ETENIIALL'S authority to make the alteration, having spoken to him on the subject. Mr. ISRAEL denied this part of the Statement, but the Clerk replied, he could bring a witness to prove the correctness of what he had asserted.' 'Mr. Is then endeavoured to explain away,the circumstance, by insinuating, that the young ,man had himself uttered the quotation wrongly ; but the Clerk answered, that Mr.. ISRAEL borrowed his pencil, and he (the Clerk) handed him a slip of paper in which Mr. ISRAEL wrote the alteration, and which was handed over immediately to the printer. After some discussion, Mr. ISRAEL consented to address a letter to the editor of the Times, explanatory of the mistake; and the following letter appears in that Journal, this morning, from Mr. ISRAEL : TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES. Sir,—Being the party alluded to in the commu ni ca tion made in your paper this morning, under the signature " Expositor," I beg to say a few words in explanation. In the first place, I must premise that the part alluding to an eminent capitalist is totally unfounded—as that gen tleman had no more to do with the transaction than yourself. It may be perfectly correct that during the hours of biisiness there were some buyers of French Rentes at 98; but the circumstances under which the bargain in question was made at 97f (not 97), exchange at 2.5 f. 55c. will justify the quotation. A gentleman, not connected with the Stock Exchange; offered me a large amount of Rentei some time after the market was closed, and' required Bank-notes immediately for tbem.. All the dealers had left the Exchange, and I certainly would not run the risk at that-time without buying them at something under what had , been, the price of the day. This was explained to the seller, whose principal was in the City, and he acquiesced in the terms. Although the price mentioned by you appears con,i derably under the price of the day; yet having :Wowed a favourable rate of exchange, it was really equal to 971. Instead of double commission being charged on this transaction, as insinuated by your correspondent, the fact is, that no commission whatever was taken, it being by me considered as a bargain, totally independent or the Stock- Exchange. And although 1 hal4 since learnt it to be contrary to the rules of the Stock-Exchange to mark prices after four o'clock, it was done at the express wish of the seller, and without the concurrence of Mr. Wetenhall. October 6. 1. H. ISRAEL. It appears to us that if the seller of the Stock was satisfied with the price obtained, the public have nothing to do with that part of the transaction ; but as WETENHALL'S list is considered almost an official record (if the expression may be used) of the price of the public securities of this Country, the alteration of a priae in it without permission, and the insertion of the price of a bargain made after the hour at which business closes, and to which only the list extends, is a misdemeanour not only towards Mr. WETENHALL, but towards the public generally, for which Mr. ISRAEL ought to be called to an account in some other manner than he' has yet been. The conduct of watchmen in this metropolis is as disgraceful to those who have appointed them, as in its effects it is injurious to society. The guardians of the night are selected for the most part from work houses, by the overseers of the parish, who in their laudable endeavours to lessen the parish burdens, contrive to shift off tl e tixpense upon' the public, by leaving their property at the mercy of thieves and burglars, for whom the , watchmen generally entertain so kindly a feeling, that acting upon the principles of free trade, they let every man follow his own busi ness. Indeed, we have beard it asserted, that coaches which come into London at early hours in the morning witness strange doings among the watchmen themselves. And where is the wonder ? These nun are paid but eighteen-pence a-night—a long winter's night of 10 or 12 hours To suppose that honest men can be procured for such remuneration betrays the grossest ignorance of human nature. Men to be honest must be paid for their trouble when placed in a tempting situation, where an overture from the enemy might prove more beneficial than fidelity to a bad paymaster—and that too when se eresy is implied by the very nature of the trans action—for what would bang the one would transport the other. Now, we think that one great cause of the increase of thieves and depredators, is owing to the inefficacy or connivance of our nightly guardians. They are chiefly old men, more in need of nurses than able to watch the safety of others. They are one half the' night asleep on their posts, or stumbling in their drowsy walks against the passengers in the streets ; and then springing their rattles for au assault, to which they a// swear, with as much affected solemnity as unblushing effrontery, and the Magistrates too often believe them 1 It is to this very easy , n ay culpable belief of the Magistrates that so many lying charges is attributable. But we are h a ppy that the Loup MAYOR forms a praiseworthy exception to this prevailing habit. Our Readers will see, by referring to the Mansion House report, that the opinion of his Lordship, respecting the character o f wa t c hmen, will not raise them in the estimation of the public.

The performances of this morning commenced, as usual, at St. Philip's church, with a. Grand Miscellaneoui Selec tion of Sacred Music. The doors were opened at an early hour, and were alinost immediately filled with an immense throng of beauty and fashion ; for in such request_ were the performances, that hundreds (as on the preceding days) flocked from all parts of England to attend them. The first act, consisting chiefly of choice selections from Handel and Haydn, was' opened by the former's grand c h o rus, " Immortal of Earth and Skies ;" after which, Miss Stephens, in her very best style, executed the recitative from "Susannah, " Alas ! I find the fatal toils are set." Mr. Vaughan followed with an air from Judas Maccabeus, " To heaven's Almighty King we kneel," and seemed, by his masterly execution, to be fully awake to the magnifi cence of the music. Mr. Lindley's performance on the violoncello merited equal praise, affording, however, little scope for definite criticism. Miss Travis, in her duet with Miss Stephens, of "Oh, never, never bow we down," almost equalled her great rival; indeed, it seemed a moot point with the audience who deserved the greatest praise. Mr. Phillips—our favourite — gave the splendid recitative, "Be comforted," with his usual dramatic felicity, and - accompanied it With the appropriate air, " The Lord worketh wonders," like a man who felt the full sublimity of his undertaking. Braham's " Sound an alarm" is too well-known to require further mention, but the very circumstance of its popu larity is a sufficient evidence of its merit; enough to say, that it fully equalled all his former efforts, and had as usual the same thrilling power over his audience. Miss' Paton warbled " Oh let eternal honours crown his name," with characteristic expression of feeling; indeed, so much was her sensibility excited, that nature sunk beneath it, and she was led out in an absolute state of exhaustion. After the interruption occasioned by this circumstance had sub sided, a chorus (introduced by Mr. Gardiner in his oratorio of Judah) was sung by the whole assemlied band. The se cond act—or part, as we believe it should be called —was principally taken up with Winter's " Triumph of Gideon," and after an impressive preparatory overture, commended with the recitative, " Hath hope forborne to dwell in mor tal breast ?" which was given with very creditable effect by Vaughan. But the grandest portion of this Sacred Drama was the chorus, "Blow the trumpet as the thun der rock and mountain shakes asunder,' which burst un expectedly on the audience like darkness. on mid-day. It is impossible to give any adequate idea of the feeling that this sublime composition excited. For an instant there was a pausea breathless expectant pause, and then a noble crash of wind-instruments, accompanied by the thun der of the drum, and the stirring music of the trumpet, broke in full swell upon the ear; while the entranced audience delivered themselves wholly up to the emotions in tended to be conveyed by the composer. After the Drama—whose chief fault was its breBity, had been concluded, Mr. Bellamy gave Calcott's Recitative, taken from that well-known Hymn by Thomson, " These, as they change, Almighty Father, these," in a style and manner which left us nothing to regret or desire. A few more airs, beautiful indeed, put of no yery nuirlso of definite character, followed ; after which Praharn his hearers by the grandeur of his Luther's Hymn. The morning's performances were wound up approprlatel by " God save the King," at compote !r; H"±! i!:!; tip whole assembled orchestra took•part. We should not omit mentioning a cfrennistance that took place towards the commencement (we think it was) of the First Part. Miss Stephens, while singing 'f Alas I find the fatal toils," was once or twice put out-by the bungling ignorance of one or two of the orchestra, and was so annoyed by the interruption, that her.feelings were visible to the whole audience. This, however, was the only unpleasant ob sNtV4:l e lm ( i bi f cru e t e li g e Pl" receipts li4 int} tan's illness ) tettlii944lll4rdi thing, 1,546/, 2s, 6d.
